STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A tracking device inside a stolen SUV brought the law down on a Stapleton woman caught driving the hot wheels, police allege.

Police say they used LoJack to track the vehicle, a 2003 Saturn Vue, after it had vanished from the driveway of its 76-year-old owner at about 1:50 p.m. Monday.

Investigators found the vehicle at the corner of Hannah and Bay streets at 6:40 p.m., with Zalika M. Williams, 24, of the 100 block of Boyd Street, sitting in the driver's seat, the engine running, court papers allege.

She now faces charges of fourth- and fifth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, and third-degree unauthorized use of a vehicle, according to information from District Attorney Daniel Donovan's office.
